ANNABEL LEE.

BY EDGAR A. POE.

 

It was many and many it year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,

That a maiden there lived that you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee ;

And thismaidon she lived with no other thought
Than to love and beloved by me.

I was a child, and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,

But we loved with a love that was more than love,
I and my Annabel Lee ;

With a lovb that the winged ssraphs of II"!
Coveted her and me.

And this was the rsitson, that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,

A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lu ;

So that her high-born kinsman come
And bore her away from me,

To shut her up in sepulcliro
In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
Went euvying her and ms-

Yosl that was the reason (as all men know
In this kingdom byths ua,)

That the wind came out of a cloud by nizht,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

But our love it was stronger by for than the love
Of’ those that were older than WI% ‘
Of ‘many in wi's'o‘i- than we-°— ' ‘

And neither the angels in Heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the us,

Can ever diuevor my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.

For the moon never bums without bringing me
Of my beautiful Annabel Inc ; [dlf0,|_>|||'.

And so, all the night tide, I lie down by the side

Of my darling—my darllng—my lilo andmy bride,‘
In the up ulcliro there by the sea, '
In the tomb by the idundiug sea.

MY WIFE.

warrrsx wan: noovnrxo not A sxvns Iicums.

I heard her, 0, how cautiously,
Open my bed-room door ,

I heard her step as iioisclessly
To my conchacross tho fiodi-,

lfelt her hands my temples pi-en,
Her lips just touching mine ;

And in my anguish and distress,
"l‘wcre sinful to repins.

' Ourpilgrimsge is nearly through-—

Wc’vc passed life's mountain’: brow,

I thought I loved years ago ;
I blow I love liar-now.

Her face was hovering over minc-
Her warm tears on my cheek ;

Her whispered prayer, of thought divine,
Ross feiveutly but meek.

Her bosom rested on my arm,
I felt its troublous tliroe ;

I knew the cause of its alarm,
I knew its source of woe,

And then the blood my system through,
Came pressing on my brow-

] thought I loved her years ago,
I know I love her now.

Thus watched that tired and patient one,
By night as well as day ;

In sadness and almost alone,
Till weeks had passedaway,

Bel-eft of sleep-deprived of rest-—
0ppressed—borne down with care ;

Till 0, her labors have been blessed.
For God has heard my prayer,

Her cheek resumes its wontod glow

‘ And placid is her brow ;

I thought I loved her years ago,
I know I love her now.

fl‘We copy the following humorous sketch
from a volume soon to be issued from the pres
of T. B. Peterson, Philadelphia, entitled“Tlie
Humors of Falconbridge,” being a series of
sketches written by the late Jonathan F. Kel-
ley, under the nom de plume of “ Falcon-
brldge,” etc.:

3111 Wlnflletreals Dental Experience’
Have you ever had the tooth-ache"?-
If not, then blessed is your ignorance, for
it is indeed blisslo know nothing about
the tooth-ache, as you know nothing,
absolutely nothing about pain-the acute,
double-distilled. rectified agony that lurks
about the roots or fangs of a treacherous
tooth. But ask a sufieror how it feels,
what it is like, how it operates, and you
may learn something theoretically which
you may pray heaven that you may not
practically. ,
But there's poor William Whifllctree,
he's been through the mill, fought, bled,
and died (slightly,) with the refined, es-
sential oil of the agony caused by a rag-
ing tooth. Every time we read Othel .
we are half inclined to think that more
than half of Iago’: devilishuess came
from that " raging tooth." which would
not let him sleep, but tortured and tor-
mented " mine ancient" so that he be-
came embittered against all the world,
and blackamoors in particular.

William Whifiletree's case is a very
strong illustration of what tooth-ache is,
and what it causes people to do; and af-
fords ii pretty fair idea of the manner in
which the tooth and sufferer are medic-
inslly and morally treated by the mate-
na medica. and friends at large
William Whifiletree—or " Bill.’' as
most people called him—wiis a sturdy
young fellow of two-and-twenty, of
" poor but respectable parents,” and
‘tended the dry-goods store of one Ethan
Rakestrsw, in '_the village of RocIlbot-
tom,,Siste of New York.

One unfortunate day, for poor Bill.
there came to Rockbottom u galvanized
looking individual, rejoicing in the eu-
phonium of Dr. Hannibal Orcsteb Waug-
banger. As a surgeon, he had. accord-
ing to the album-full of certificates, ope-
rated in all the scientific branches of sin-
putatiou, from the scalp-lock to the heel-
isp, upon Emperors, Kings, Queens and
common folks; but upon his science in
the dental way, be spread and grew lu-
minous! In short, Dr. Wangbanger had
not neen long in Rockbotiom before his
" gift of gab.” and unadulterated propen-
sity to elongate the blanket, eat every-
body, including poor Bill Whiflletree, in
a furor to have their teeth cut, filed.-
scrapcd, rasped, re-set, dug out. and bur-
nished up!

Now Bill, being, as we sforestated, a
muscularly-developed youth, got up‘ in
the most sturdy New Hampshire style,
his teeth were teeth, in every way cal-
culated to perform long iiifll strong; but
Bill was fast imbibing counter-jumper
nouous,dabbling in sud dickeys, greased}
soap-locks, and other fancy “ flab-dubs,”
supposed to be essential in cutting a
owanh among ye fair sex.

So that when Dr. Wsnalianger once
had an audience with Mr.WilIiamWhif-
fletree in regard to one of Mr. Whitfie-
tree's molars which Bill thought had a
"speck" on it, he soon convinced the
victim that the said moist not only was

an inch!

hum ; “it is well I saw it in time, Mr.
Wliiflletree.

becoming apostrophized, the roots would
have concatenated in their niatusos, and
the jaw-bone, no longer acting upon their
fossil exoduses, would uecsssrlly have led
to the entire suspeusiouof the capillary
organs of your stomach and brain, and-

-; death would supervene in two hours ."'

Poor Bill! be scarcely -knew what

.- fainting was, but a quest sensation sei-

tled in his " ossis froutis,'? while his 0;-
sis lcgso almost bent double under him,
at the awful prospect of things before
him! He took a long breath. however,
and in a voice tremulous with emotion,
inquired:

" Good Lord, Doctor! what’: to be
done for a feller '3"
" Plug and file,” calmly said the Doc-
tor.
'- Plug and file what P”
“ The second molar," said the Doctor,
though the treacherous monster meant
Bill's wallet, of course.
“ What'l| it cost, Doctor?" says Bill.
_ " Done in my very best manner, upon
the new and splendid system invented by
myself, sir, and practiced upon all the
crowned heads of Europe, London and
Washington City, it will cost you three
dollars.” ,
“Does it hurt much, Doctor '2" was
Bill’: cautious inquiry.
" Very little, indeed; it's sometimes
rather agreeable, sir, than otherwise,”
said‘ the Doctor.
"Then go at it, Doctor‘! Here's the
dash." and forking over three dollars,
down sits William Whifiletree in a high-
backed chair, and the Doctor's assistant
—a sturdy’ young, Irishmsu—clsmping
Bill's head to theback of the chair, to
keep it steady, asthe Doctor remarked,
the latter began to “ bore and file.”
‘'0! sh ! ho-ho-hold on, hold on ."’
cries Bill, at the first gouge the Doctor
gave the huge tooth.
" 0! be me soul ! be aizy, zur," says
the Irishman, " it’s meself as numer-
stsnds it—] ‘ll howld on till gee: ."’
" 0--0,-Ii-h-h !" more Bill, as the Doc-

" Fined? No, I ain't been fined or

clamped his swollen jaw with his hand.
and went around waving his head like a

" O, thee's been to the dentist, ch '54-

William; in little lsudsnum and cotton

Mrs. Rakcstraw applied the lsudauum
to Bill's molar, but as it did no kind. of
good, old grandmother proposed a poul-
tice ; and soon poor Bill's head and
cheek were done up in mush, while he
grosned and granted and started for the
store, every body gapingat his swollen
countenance as though he want rare
curiosity.
" l-lalloo, Bill !” says old Firelock, the
gunsmitli, as Bill was going by his shop.
“ got a bag in your calsbssh, or got the
tooth-ache 3''
Bill looked daggers at old Firelock,
and by a nod of his head intimated the
cause of his distress.
"O, that all! Come in; I'll stop it
in a minute and ii half; sit down, I'll
fix it— I've cured hundreds," says Fire-
lock. _
“ What are you—O-h-h, dear, what
are you going to do 'E’' says Bill, eyeing
the wire, and lamp in which Firelock
was beating the wire.
" Burn out the marrow of the tooth-

ed hundreds that way ! Don't be afoul-
ed—you won't feel it but:a moment. Sit
still, ‘keep cool !" says Firelock.
" Cool?” with ii hot wire in his tooth !
But Bill, being already intensely cruci-
fied, aud assured of Firelock's skill, took
his head out of the much plaster, opened
his jaws, and Fil-clock, ndmonishiug him
to " keep cool," crowded the not, siz-
zling wire on to the tin foil jammed iii-
to the hollow by Wangbuuger, and gave
it a twist clear through the melted tin to
the exposed nerve. Bill jumped, bit off
the wire, burnt his tongue, and knocked
Firelock nearly through the partition of
his shop; and so frightened Monsieur
Seven, the little barber next door, that

An Allecting L‘ourt,Incident.

' The following incident, so graphically
described by a correspondent of Arthur's
Home Gazette, occurred in our Court at
Harrisburgli,-—says the Crystal (Penn.)
Fountain. The “ youthful attorney” al-
luded to,who made such a brilliant debut,
was John C, Kunkel, now one of the
ablest lawyers in this judicial district.-
or several years he represented Dau-
phin County in the popular branch of the
Legislature, and was subsequently elect-
ed to the State Senate, of which distin-
guished body he is now u member : ,
Law—though framed for the protec-
tion of society, for the individual benefit
of its members—often admits of a con-
struction adverse to the design of its leg-
islators, and its application frequently
defeats the objects which it was intend-
ed to sustain. We have, however, nu-
merous instances wherein honest juries
have given their verdicts, conformable
to the prompting of justice ; and, happi-
ly, when such decisions have not been
too widely different from the expressed
rule, they have escaped from the appeal
We take pleasure in relating an inci-
dent which greatly enli-ted our sympa-
thies, held us spell-bound by its interest,
and finally made our heart leap with joy
at its happy termination

In the spring of 184-, we chanced to
be spending a few days in a beautiful in-
land country town in Pennsylvania. It‘
was court week, and to relieve us from
the somewhat monotonous incidents of
village life, we stepped into the room
where the court had convened.

Among the prisoners in the box, we
saw a lad but ten years of age, whose
sad and pensive countenance, his young
and innocent appearance, caused him to
look sadly out of place among the hard-
ened crimiuals by whom he is surround-
ed- C1089 by the box, and manifesting
the greatest interest in the proceedings,
at a tearful woman, whose anxious
glance from the judge to the boy, left us
no room to doubt that it was his mother.
We turned with sadness from the scene
to inquire :of the offence of the prisoner,
and learned he was accused of stealing
money.

The case was soon commenced, and
by the interest manifested by that large
crowd, we found that our heart was not
not the only one in which sympathy for
the lad existed. How we pitied him !
The blight smile had vanished from his
face, and now it expressed the cares of
the aged. His young sister. a bright‘-
eved girl, had gained admission to his
side, and cheered him with the whisper-
ing of hope. But that sweet voice,which
before caused his heart to bound with
happiness, added only to the grief his
shame had brought upon him.

The progress of the case acquainted
us with the circumstances of the loss, the
extent of which was but ii dimo-no
more!

The lad's employer, a wealthy, miser-
ly and unprincipled manufacturer, had
made use of it for the purpose of what
he called " testing the boy's honesty."
It was placed, where from its very posi-
tion the lad would oftenest see it. and
least suspect the trap. A day passed;
and the master, to his morlificstlou. not
pleasure, found the coin untouched. An-
other day passed, and yet his object was
not gained. He. however, was deter-
mined that the boy should take it, and
so he let it‘ remain.

This continued temptation was too
mlich for the boy's resistance. The dime
was taken. A simple present for that
little sister was purchased Will! it. But
while returning home to gladden her
heart, his own was made heavy by being
arrested for theft! 3 crime. the nature
of which be little knew. These circum-
stances were sustained by several of his
employer's workmen, who were also pl!-
iies to the plot. An attorney urged up-
on the jury the necessity of making the
“ little rogue” an example to others by
punishment.
feet upon all who heard it. Before, 1
could see many tears of sympathy for the
lad, his widowed mother and faithful sis-
tel‘. But their eyes were all dry now,
and none looked as if they cared for
ought else but a conviction The accu-
ser sat in it conspicuous place, smiling
as if in fiend-like exultstiou over the
misery he had brought upon that poor,
but once happy trio. We felt that than
was but little hope for the boy, and the
youthful appearance of the attorney who

His address had great cf- _

had volunteered his defence, gave no en-
couragement, as we‘ learned that it was
the young man's maiden‘ plea—his first
address. He ap‘peared‘gi-s'a’tly confused,
and reached to a desk near him, from
which he took the Bible that had been
used to solemnize the testimony: This
movement was‘ received with general
laughter and taunting remarks. Ilnong
which we heard a harsh fellow close by
us cry out : »

" He forgets where he is. Thinking
to take hold of some ponderous low book
he has made a mistake and got the Bi-
ble."

4 The remark made the young attorney
flush with anger, and turning his flash-
ing eyes upon the audience, he convinc-
ed them there was no mistake, saying :

" J usiics wants no other book."

His confusion was gone, and instantly
be was as calm ' ncthe soberJudge on
thebench. ' ' ' ' 

The Bible was opened,‘ and every eye
was upon him as he quietly and leisure-
Iy turned over the leaves.‘ Amidst breath-
less silence, he read to the jury this sen-
tence : ’ ‘

“Lead in not into temptation.”

We felt our heart thiob at the sound
of these words. The audience looked at
each other without speaking, and the ju-
ryiuen exchanged glances as the appro-
priate quotation carried its moral to their
hearts. Then followed an addrsss,which
for pathetic eloquence we have never
heard excelled. Its effect was like msg-
ic. We saw the guilty accuser leave the
room in fear of personal violence. The
prisoner looked hopeful, the mother smil-
ed sgain, and before its conclusion, there
was not an eye in the court room that
was not moist. The speech, affecting
to that degree which caused tears, held
its hearers spell bound.

, Thelittle time that was necessary to
transpire before the verdict of the jury
could be learned, was a period of great
anxiety and suspense.‘ But when their
whispering consultation ‘ceased, and
those happy words, “ Not Guilty." came
from the foreman, they passed like a
thrill of electricity from lip to lip; the
austere dignlty.of the court was forgot-
ten, and not ii voice was there tbatdid
not join in the scclnmatiou that hailed
the lsd’s release. .Tne young lawyer's
first plea was a successsful one. ,He
was soon a favorite, and. uoworepresents
his district in the councils of the Coin-
monwealth. The lad has never ceased
his grateful remembrauces ; and we, by
the affecting scene herein to be describ-
ed, have often been led to think how
manifold greater is the crime of the
temple: than of the tempted.

 

Treatment of the Hair.

We may be venturing on a delicate
subject, perhaps, but the following brief
extract from an old London Magazine,-
expresses our views too nearly to pass
uucopied :

If the ladies will trust to our science
on the subject of Hair, in the first place
we can assure them, most confidently,
that so far from being" true that oils and
pomatums increase the lustre of the hair,
their «idea: is to diminish that polish
which it naturally possesses; wh’ile,what~
ever gloss they may give to hair which
is naturally doll, is false, and like other

fslsities, is disgusting. Absolute clean-

liness, bv‘mesns of water alone. to com
mence. followed by brusfing in the di-
rection of the hair itself, in a dry state,
is the true method of giving to the hair
all the polish-of which it is susceptible;
and it is the effect of oils of all kinds to
disturb or injure this»; ‘tosay nothing of
the disgust and necessary dirtiuessi of
greasy hair. It is the effect of one also
to prevent it from curling; and this ob-
ject is most effectually obtained, if with
out artificial means, by curling it when
wet, and suffering it to dry in that state.
And as it happens that almost all hair
has a tendency to curl in one direction
Illhel than in another, it is useful to
study that tendency, so as to conform to
it in the artificial fiexure given. As to
artificial applications, the whole of the
so-called curling fluids are mere imposi-
tions ; while one, which is really effec-
tual und at the same time inoffensive,
is a weak solution of islnglass, by which
a very firm and permanent form can be
given to the hair. - * " ° "
The fact is, that the whole is an im-
posture; oils, pomatums, and all ; Bear's
Grease, Macsssar, and Rowland, Huile
a la Tuberosc, I-luilc Antique; huilss or
pomades, divine or whatever else. Ex-
ceptiug so far as pomatum may be used
for stiffening or compacting the hair in-
to dirty or greasy masses, or oils for con-
verting thc easy and flow of nature‘: or-
namental looks into nasty rat's tails, the
whole is but a method of extracting mo-
ney for vanity and fashion. It is but a
rivalry of the stinking Hottentots, a relic
of savage bsrbuism, As to the chemis-
try itself, if the ladies will make them-
selves greasy and disgusting, olive oil,
alone, is the only oil that is necessary-
hog’s lard is the only pomalnm; and if
it is not sufficiently stiff, let it be stiffen-
ed to the taste by wax. It is an apathe-
csry's plaster, or an IIpothecary’s oint-
meut, according to its consistence‘; it is
neither more nor less The rest all per-
fume, nothing more; and the lady’: maid,
or lady herself, who desires lo have a
greasy head, may save her money and
her care, by sending down to the cook
for a little oil from the flask, or a little
oil from the bladder ; or else to the
spothccsry. for a little simple ointment,
preparing it to her own fancy.

However, as long as female vanity ex.
ins, (and when will it cease?) we Write
in vain. The five hundred oils and po-
mstums will go on being made, and the
angel who loves herself better than clean-
liness, will go on making herself greasy
and odorous. But it is all for the best,
or how should trade flourish, how should
money circulate from pockets that are too
full, to pockets too empty 2
